T. D. Erickson : El Alboroto de los Conejillos

Last Friday was an incredibly hectic day at the clinic ... I had nearly three times as many patients as I have during a normal day. To unwind when I got home, I sat down and fantasized about all the guinea pigs of the world uniting and rebelling against modern medicine. With that inspiration, I wrote this brief vivace rouser for concert band. The soprano saxophone represents the leader of "The Uproar of the Guinea Pigs". Enjoy!

Account ClosedThis is the best wind ensemble piece I have heard! I wish I could hear it played by a real group. This is awesome! I loved it! YES!!! Very nice runs, and the vibraphone running up with the other instruments was a sweet touch. I saw the running around and chaos of your job in that song. I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed this piece! 50 stars!
